Thanks for that post. It underscores that there was definitely a pattern of Scot Presbyterians supporting Bonnie Prince Charles, and then later supporting American Independence.

I do not understand why they would support the re-ascent of a Stuart....unless somehow they thought that the Hanoverians were worse? The Stuarts aren't exactly republicans or parliamentarians....
